Ben Barnes Relieved Rob Pattinson Beat Him for Role of Edward Cullen

‘I would loathe to be Robert Pattinson, and I know he struggles with the attention,’ he says, revealing that he was once in the running for Pattinson’s role as Edward Cullen in Twilight. ‘The director announced that it was Robert or me… I’m slightly relieved it was him.’

Now I'm wondering if Ben also had to do the 'make out' scene with Kristen!
Well at least the final was between british actors!!
